Self-Care Tools: Interesting article in the Wall Street Journal on technological devices that help patients (and their physicians, if they so wish) control and manage their care. This is just the type of thing to drive technology into the healthcare delivery system: get techno benefits to patients that are easy to see, and the system will incorporate the technology. It's easy to see how this type of patient-centered technology would mesh nicely with an adaptive electronic medical record system.
